Food for Thought

Its Monday. The start of a new week and a new month. Summer has officially arrived in Texas and well, here comes the summer crud. I spent most of Sunday on le couch, with lord only knows what ailing me. My head was icky, my tummy was icky and I still feel, well icky. But, I digress..... My weekend was a tad dull to some, but just what I needed after a full-packed April-May.

Friday, after a hellacious day, I had a wonderful date night with le guy. I was a tad grumbly when I got home, as I had been struggling for the last two weeks with so much on my mind and heart. It was not made any better by the load at work. Its good to be busy, but sometimes it can just be all too much. I was having one of those days, where nothing seems to go right and everything is weighing heavy on heart and mind. I finally decided to confide and man, it felt so much better. Amazing what the healing power of words and virtual hug can do from you BOFF.

Again, digressed. We headed to a newer place on West 7th: AF+B (American Food + Beverage). It prides itself in American food, wine and spirits. And it did not disappoint.

We started with the Chorizo Scotch Eggs. Yes, fried hard-boiled eggs with chorizo. TO.DIE.FOR. Then I had the pork chop and he dined in the salmon. We finished it off with chocolate peanut butter icebox pie. Heaven on multiple plates.

Saturday I went for a much-needed run and then collapsed. I was just tired. I finally dragged myself off the couch for a little much-needed trip to the mall. I was out of makeup. As in, could not even scrap the bottom of the bottle, out. I decided it was time for a little re-do in the make up department. When in doubt, head to the Neiman's make up counters. I have heard great things about Armani's foundation, so I decided to just give it a try. I will let you know how I like it after a week. I admit, it was super nice to just sit down and be pampered from brow to lip. Too  bad I had no big plans that night, but I did look fab for the hopping crowd at Happy Bowl 2!

Sunday I dragged myself out of bed and into church. Ever have that feeling that sometimes you drag your butt out because He knows you need to hear the message? It also sets my tone for the week.I just wish I had felt better. But alas, I got back home and the dizziness and tummy started again. I was down and out for the better part of the day.

I did get to see my favorite baby girl yesterday! I made dinner for my good friend K and her hubs and new baby girl! That sweet face just melts my heart and ruffles on her little baby booty? I could just eat her up. That was pretty much it. I was in bed a la 9:30 and still feel less than stellar. URGH!

Hoping this thing clears out soon!
